FYE Unveils New and Improved Holiday-Themed 'Rugrats' Reptar Bars

Update (11/4) - Below is Nickelodeon and Trans World Entertainment Corp.'s official press release announcing the ROOAARR-tastic news!:

The Superist! The Duperist! Reptar Bar is Back at FYE



Albany, NY, November 1, 2018 -- Through a partnership with Nickelodeon, FYE will once again delight fans with a new spin on last year’s very successful Reptar chocolate bar, inspired by the hit Nick ‘90s animated series Rugrats. Hold on to your diapies babies, Reptar is back and better than ever!

The new, limited release of the exclusive Deluxe Reptar Chocolate Bar is the confection fans have been asking for! FYE has created a 6oz, 6.5” tall, beautifully packaged, flavor explosion in the shape of Reptar. You can finally bite into a delicious milk chocolate exterior, swirled with nuts and caramel, featuring a tasty bright green frosting center that turns your tongue green! This edition of the chocolate bar is the first of its kind and will only be available at FYE. Be prepared to enjoy Reptar on a new deluxe level!

Iconic Rugrats character Angelica Pickles said it best, “A Reptar Bar is chocolate and nuts and caramel and green stuff and it’s swirled and stirred and rippled and beaten and sweetened until you can’t stop eatin’. The superist! The duperist! The double chocolate scooperist! The meanest! The best! It’s better than the rest! Reptar Bar! Reptar Bar! The candy bar supreme! The candy bar that turns your tongue green!”


FYE has also just launched the exclusive Reptar on Ice Bar for anyone who missed the original. This year the Reptar on Ice Bar turns your tongue blue! As part of a broader Nickelodeon ‘90s product offering, FYE even has exclusive men’s and women’s apparel, a Christmas ornament, collectible figures, cozy sweatshirt blanket, and more.

These products are available exclusively at FYE stores and both of the chocolate bars are available for order at www.FYE.com.

Trim your tree this holiday with a Reptar Christmas Tree ornament (image above)!

Besides a T.Rex shaped chocolate bar and Reptar Christmas Tree ornament, there are many more products that will keep the '90s alive. You'll find Reptar shirts to rock to your next cycling class and a Chuckie Rugrats keychain that will ensure you never lose track of your house or car keys ever again.

While '90s Nick Kids might miss certain details of their childhood, like watching a Rugrats marathon without being aware that there would ever be a worry about final exams or big meetings in their future, there are perks to being an adult. For example, getting to make the decision that stocking up on multiple candy bars is a very good idea.

Karisma Hotels & Resorts, a luxury hotel collection that owns and manages properties across Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe, has appointed Diego Jaramillio as the new general director of Karisma Latin America. Jaramillio brings more than 20 years of professional experience to his position, where he will play a role in Karisma’s expansion throughout the region.

As a part of Karisma Hotels & Resorts’ global growth, the company led the opening and expansion of Allure Hotels by Karisma in Colombia and recently announced a strategic alliance with the Irotama Resort on Pozos Colorados Beach in Santa Marta, Colombia.

We are confident that he will be an integral part of Karisma’s continued growth in the region.”

As general director, Jaramillio will oversee expansion across Latin America with brands such as Nickelodeon and Margaritaville. In addition to driving development of new hotels in the region, he will lead sales and marketing strategies to drive Latin America-based guests to Karisma’s existing portfolio, including Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana, El Dorado Spa Resorts, Azul Beach Resorts, Generations Riviera Maya, Karisma Villas, Allure Hotels, and Hidden Beach Resort.
